I am sorry for your loss. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
So sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing your photos and experience with BabyKitten. Beautiful Kitty. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
Do not beat yourself up and take comfort in knowing you gave her the best possible life. No one knows when that time comes and I believe she waited for you. You gave her love in her final hours and passed quietly. Please take care of yourself and maybe in time you can show that love with another kitty in need. I am ver... | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |

Thank you. It was taken a couple of months ago, but to me it was a sign that her spirit was really strong in the garden. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |

So sorry for your loss. I know that hurt too well. I've lost 4 cats so far and it hurts just as much each time. I hope you find as time goes by your pain gets a bit better. Take care. Hug to you. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-10-08 |

Beautiful eulogy and thank you so much for sharing. There is no douby you gave babykitty your best and she clearly loved you for it. You will always have that special bond, and you will see eachother again.
Please dont ever blame yourself or feel bad for not being there in a bad moment. You were there for 21 years and... | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-10-08 |
I’m so sorry to hear that. It must have been in our kitties’ fates to struggle for a bit, alone, before the person they loved they most came back to be with them in their final moments.
The pain is unimaginable. I had been working on making the garden beautiful, partly for her because she loved it so much. the garden... | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-10-08 |

I can see the feist in your Babykitten…what a beautiful one. It makes my heart so glad to know there are others out there, like you, that love animals to this depth. It is this incredibly meaningful bond that makes the loss so severe.

She was so lucky to have you. Your story made me ugly cry but I know they appreciate us being there for them in the end. I've had this heartbreak and it's not an easy one but I too held my baby through it until her last breaths. It gives me some comfort knowing we will one day be with them again. I still cry for her 3 ... | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-10-08 |
I was Baby Kitty ‘s mommy for about 11 years,( from 2009 to 2021) while Dave lived inRome and then also when he came back to live in LA.. she was a beautiful cat, feisty when she had to be and sometimes very needytoo- she always liked boys more than girls and tended to sit more on my husbands lap than mine .

You were the best mommy to her.

So sorry you lost baby kitten. I have an 18-year-old right now so it’s just a matter of time. Your kitty was very pretty. We have a live time with them and it never seems like it’s enough time. I’m so sad for you I know how you feel. It’s just empty. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-10-08 |
What a beautiful girl.
I’m so sorry… | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-10-08 |
Emptiness is a prevailing emotion. I don’t feel like myself.
However, talking to other animal loving friends and the lovely people on this subreddit have made pain more bearable.
Hug your Kitty tight and give her whipped cream. My Kitty loved snacks and whipped cream was one of her favorites. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-10-08 |
Babykitten looks aptly named and like a perfect joy. Thank you for giving her such a wonderful life & death. 21 is amazing! And now everyone who read this post knows about her and got to see her beautiful photos 🫂 | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-10-08 |
Thank you for your kind words. It is so therapeutic to hear and feel everyone’s kindness. I feel Babykitten’s spirit stronger today than previous days. She still gives me strength. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-10-08 |

My cat is 16 years old and has stage 2 kidney disease as well as liver disease. He's been on prescription kidney food (Forza/Royal Canin/Hills) for a few years now. Although his kidney disease has stabilized, he has lost muscle mass and become very thin in his back. I believe this may be due to the low protein in these... | r/renalcats | post | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
My vets and I have toyed with this idea because my cat is so incredibly picky. Thankfully, he's taking the kidney food right now... He also has been known to accept food and later reject it.
We were told to go a veterinary nutritionist for a recipe. There are a few websites that you can work with, providing your pet'... | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-10-08 |
Hi everyone, I’m hoping for a bit of guidance and advice for my 16yr old CKD moggy, please. He underwent a routine teeth cleaning under GA when he was 10 but unbeknownst to us had an undiagnosed UTI at the time. This led to an episode of pylonephritis and he went into acute renal failure. His emergency vet was fantasti... | r/renalcats | post | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
I would take him to a cat dental specialist (or maybe even two if possible to get different opinions). See if you can do a consult and talk to them about his condition. They’re your best bet to know what’s right. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
My 9 nine year old stage 2 recently had a dental with 4 extractions. They used propofol for his anesthesia because it’s quick under and quick awake. And kept him on IV fluids longer. There are steps to take for high risk cats. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
I would do the dental and removal of bad teeth as his CKD advances you won’t be able to do the dental and by that point you will wish you had. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
I know this might not be exactly the same story, but my parents have a dog with severe breathing issues. Her breath smelled awful, but they didn’t want to risk a surgery. They did it anyway, and she pulled through. The vet said that her teeth could have killed her if they had waited even longer. The pus squirted out of... | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
From what I've read it's totally safe to do dental work at this stage, with proper precautions. Left untreated, dental problems only get worse and can make ckd progress faster. It's also quite painful for the cat if left untreated. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
My vet won’t even do GA for cleaning or extraction that is definitely needed, but my kitty (14yo) is stage three. He’s on meds to manage pain, which the vet said isn’t uncommon for elderly kitties to need for the rest of their lives. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
When I wanted to have my babies teeth cleaned when he got older, they would take test, to make sure nothing else was going on with him before using GA. As he further aged the vet would no longer use GA. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
My 14 yo diabetic (in remission) stage 2 CKD with a low grade heart murmer went through dental procedure and GA just fine. My regular vet referred us to a dental specialist, and after their evaluation, blood work, exam etc, I chose to add a board certified veterinary anesthesiologist as it was recommended but not nec... | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
My stage 2 CKD cat (15 years old) just last week had 4 of her teeth extracted - she had inpatient fluid treatment just before surgery and a few hours after. She is doing well and there's been minimal complications thereafter. The logistics of the day were to drop her off in the morning about 9am, the surgery happened a... | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
I would go for it. Tye had multiple extractions done when she was stage 2 or 3, I don't remember now, and would've been about 14. She was in so much pain the vet said she had a bite reflex from the nerve pain even while under a general anesthetic, and that she was in so much pain before her surgery that even if we di... | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
My old girl has to get a few more teeth removed after being diagnosed, she was about 17 at that point. (She’d already had several teeth removed when I got her.) I trusted the vet and she gave me different options, we opted to take out the problem tooth and a couple others that looked to be heading that way to be preven... | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-10-08 |
Stage 3 cat, diagnosed 2 months ago, has been on renal diet and potassium supplement so far. Has had IV flush and levels got better after. Would love to do sub q fluids but I live in Ireland and my vets have told me this is not the done thing.

Have you heard of Astros Oil? I tried this with my cat and it did improve his numbers. The Creatinine Scrub may help with her levels. Daily sub q fluids would be great but I understand Ireland is much different. Have you done a urine test?

I wonder why they don't hydrate via sub q...although I wouldn't recommend this at home on your own? Is this what you asked them? For you to do at home? I would have the vet do this..our dog had it done many times an maybe the cat, once? | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
The vets did administer a sub q and she’s going for an IV flush tomorrow. But I know a lot of people on this Reddit administer sub w fluids on their own at home | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-10-08 |
Ohh, I see...I'm too afraid of hurting my babies..their dad wouldn't do it either. We would both be driving to the vet to have the experienced professional do it. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-10-08 |
My baby boy Crowley was recently diagnosed with chronic kidney disease. It was an incidental finding at a routine check up, prior to getting his teeth cleaner. He is only 4 years old.
The vet thinks it is in early stages as he does not have any symptoms, but we are sending the ultrasound to a radiologist to get more i... | r/renalcats | post | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |

With CKD it's all about luck and managing as best as we can. I heard in one of Jackson Galaxy's videos that he had managed his cats CKD for 10+ years. All the best, I hope the vet is wrong and you get many more years with him. Love and good vibes to both of you ❤️ | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |

Somewhat. However, I don't like to put a dollar value on things I cherish., but it really depends on the level of care involved.

My husband and I won’t be having kids and our cats are our top priority. Thankfully we have good jobs as well, so we are lucky to be able to afford whatever treatment may come in the future. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-10-08 |
“vet thinks its in early stages” - this isn’t very assuring. Did he not do blood tests? Do you have the tests? If he can’t tell you anything about stages it would seem he was far too premature to spit out a 4 - 5 year number. Even older cats have lived well beyond 5 years with CKD so just focus on keeping yours as heal... | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-10-08 |
You can get most of the benefits of the expensive treatment with some inexpensive options. If you can’t afford the renal food (and some cats won’t eat it anyway), you can look for the lowest phosphorous commercial foods and also use a phosphorous binder with his normal cat foods. The sub-Q can be very affordable jf you... | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-10-08 |
We did blood and urine tests. The abnormalities aren’t that severe according to the vet. I’ll see if I can get the actual report to see the range myself. I have another appointment to go discuss the ultrasound report in a week :) | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-10-08 |
My cat was diagnosed in 2019/20. She passed end of July at 20 years old (and 10 months). My other cat developed early signs of kidney issues (but never progressed to CKD) closer to 14/15. Sadly I lost him to cancer/related symptoms at almost 16. Both were adopted at about 3 months so I don’t know about their history... | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-12-08 |

my cat has been diagnosed with kidney failure, but he is a very picky eater (only likes his specific rachel ray dry food or a puree consistency like churu).

My cat liked the Royal Canin renal support formulas best out of the major prescription brands. They have 3 flavors that I rotate between each time I order since he does eventually get bored of the same one.
When you say you have to push for the fluids, do you mean your vet isn’t necessarily recommending them but is o... | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
honestly, I don’t really know what stage he is at. they never told me, just said his levels were elevated and they recommended me to a specialty vet to do an ultrasound for a mass he had and he said that he has kidney failure. I will definitely inquire to see what stage he is at then! when the vet examines him, they do... | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
My cat refused the CKD diet. I put her on Purina ProPlan. She also gets Pet RX Hydration everyday, and a can of quality cat wet food like Nulo. I also have a fountain to encourage drinking. She is 22, and had kidney disease for 6 years. Just check with your vet to make sure it's okay. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
We do the Purina early support but I mix some regular dry with it and add a little fortiflora. We just do fancy feast pate wet with added water. He won’t eat prescription wet. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
My cat likes the new one by Farmina. It’s called renal veterinary formula | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
Yes. There is an alternative to subQ fluids. Look for Purina Hydra Care at your local pet store. I have had great success with it and it's a fraction of the cost of SubQ fluids and unlike the needles that are painful, it gives your cat ,a 95% hydration factor.

You can use a phosphorus binder. We feed our cat a lower phosphorous food but not as low as a prescription diet. Using Epikatin off chewy (vet recommended) and keeping the phosphorus at bay. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
Our buddy refuses all the renal care wet food (he does the blue buffalo renal diet dry) so we add a phosphate binder to his wet food or in a lickable treat. Maybe ask if that’s a good option. | r/renalcats | comment | r/RenalCats | 2024-09-08 |
